3. Model equations

Mole fractions

Equilibrium expression for mole fractions ($α≥0$) (16)

$$y_α(φ,p)=y_α^E\exp\left(\frac{-z_αe}{k_BT}(φ- φ^E)-\frac{v_α}{k_BT}(p-p^E)\right)$$

y_α(φ,p,α,data)

Ion molar fractions

function y_α(φ, p, α, data)
    η_φ = data.z[α] * data.e * (φ - data.E_ref)
    η_p = data.v[α] * (p * data.pscale - data.p_ref)
    return data.y_E[α] * exp(-(η_φ + η_p) / (data.kT))
end;

y0(p,data)

Solvent molar fraction

y0(p, data) = data.y0_E * exp(-data.v0 * (p * data.pscale - data.p_ref) / (data.kT));

Poisson equation

Poisson equation (32a)

$$-∇⋅(1+χ)ε_0∇φ = q(φ,p)$$

poisson_flux!(f,u,edge,data)

VoronoiFVM flux function for left hand side of Poisson equation

function poisson_flux!(f, u, edge, data)
    return f[iφ] = (1.0 + data.χ) * data.ε_0 * (u[iφ, 1] - u[iφ, 2])
end;

Space charge expression

Solvated ion volumes:

$$ v_α=(1+κ_α)v_0$$

Incompressibility condition (14)

$$\begin{aligned} 1&=∑\limits_α v_αn_α= n ∑\limits_α v_α y_α\\ n&=\frac1{∑\limits_α v_α y_α} \end{aligned}$$

Space charge

$$\begin{aligned} q(φ,p)&=e∑\limits_α z_αn_α = ne∑\limits_α z_αy_α\\ &=e\frac{∑\limits_α z_αy_α(\phi,p)}{∑\limits_α v_α y_α(\phi,p)} \end{aligned}$$

function spacecharge(φ, p, data)
    y = y0(p, data)
    sumyz = zero(eltype(p))
    sumyv = data.v0 * y
    for α in 1:(data.N)
        y = y_α(φ, p, α, data)
        sumyz += data.z[α] * y
        sumyv += data.v[α] * y
    end
    return data.e * sumyz / sumyv
end

spacecharge (generic function with 1 method)

Sum of mole fractions

function ysum(φ, p, data)
    sumy = y0(p, data)
    for α in 1:(data.N)
        sumy += y_α(φ, p, α, data)
    end
    return sumy
end

ysum (generic function with 1 method)

spacecharge_and_ysum!(f,u,node,data)

VoronoiFVM reaction function. This assumes that terms are on the left hand side. In addition to the space charge it calculates the residuum of the definition of $y_\alpha$ (32b):

$$∑_α y_α(φ,p)=1$$

However, direct usage of this equation leads to slow convergence of Newton's method. So we use

$$\log\left(∑_α y_α(φ,p)\right)=0$$

instead.

function spacecharge_and_ysum!(f, u, node, data)
    φ = u[iφ]
    p = u[ip]
    f[iφ] = -spacecharge(φ, p, data)
    return f[ip] = log(ysum(φ, p, data)) # this behaves much better with Newton's method
end;

update_derived!(data)

Update derived data in data record.

Calculate bulk mole fractions from incompressibiltiy:

$$\begin{aligned} ∑\limits_αv_αn_α^E&=1\\ n_0^E&=\frac1{v_0}\left(1-∑\limits_{α>0}v_αn_α^E\right)\\ n^E&=\frac1{v_0}\left(1-∑\limits_{α>0}v_αn_α^E\right)+ ∑\limits_{α>0}n_α^E\\ &=\frac1{v_0}\left(1-∑\limits_{α>0}(v_α-v_0)n_α^E\right)\\ &=\frac1{v_0}\left(1-∑\limits_{α>0}((1+ κ_α)v_0-v_0)n_α^E\right)\\ &=\frac1{v_0}\left(1-∑\limits_{α>0}κ_αv_0n_α^E\right)\\ &=\frac1{v_0}-∑\limits_{α>0}κ_αn_α^E\\ y_α^E&=\frac{n_α^E}{n^E} \end{aligned}$$

function derived(κ, v0, n_E, T)
    c0 = 1 / v0
    barc = 0.0
    v = (1.0 .+ κ) .* v0
    N = length(κ)
    for α in 1:N
        barc += n_E[α]
        c0 -= n_E[α] * (1 + κ[α])
    end
    barc += c0
    y_E = n_E / barc
    y0_E = c0 / barc
    U_T = ph"k_B" * T / ph"e"
    return (; v, y_E, y0_E, U_T)
end;

    function update_derived!(data::EquilibriumData)
        (; κ, v0, n_E, T) = data
        return data.v, data.y_E, data.y0_E, data.U_T = derived(κ, v0, n_E, T)
    end
    update_derived!(::ElectrolyteData) = nothing
end

update_derived! (generic function with 2 methods)

let
    data = EquilibriumData()
    set_molarity!(data, 0.01)
    update_derived!(data)
    sumyz = 0.0
    sumyv = data.y0_E * data.v0
    sumy = data.y0_E
    for α in 1:data.N
        v = (1.0 + data.κ[α]) * data.v0
        sumyz += data.y_E[α] * data.z[α]
        sumyv += data.y_E[α] * v
        sumy += data.y_E[α]
    end
    @assert sumy ≈ 1.0
end

$$∇ φ\to 0$$

we choose homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions

$$\partial_n φ=0$$

        molarity = nothing,
        verbose = false
    )

    if !isnothing(molarity)
        error("The molarity kwarg of dlcapsweep_equie has been removed. Pass the molarity information with set_molarity!.")
    end


    data = sys.physics.data
    update_derived!(data)

        caps = zeros(0)
        volt = 0.0
        sol = inival

7. The pressure Poisson equation

An alternative possibility to handle the pressure has been introduced in

J. Fuhrmann, “Comparison and numerical treatment of generalised Nernst–Planck models,” Computer Physics Communications, vol. 196, pp. 166–178, 2015..

Starting with the momentum balance in mechanical equilibrium

$$ \nabla p = -q\nabla \varphi$$

by taking the divergence on both sides of the equation, one derives the pressure Poisson problem

$$\begin{aligned} -\Delta p &= \nabla\cdot q\nabla \varphi & \text{in}\; \Omega\\ p&=p_{bulk} & \text{on}\; \Gamma_{bulk}\\ (\nabla p + q\nabla \varphi)\cdot \vec n &=0 & \text{on}\; \partial\Omega\setminus\Gamma_{bulk}\\ \end{aligned}$$

The bulk Dirichlet boundary condition for the pressure is necessary to make the solution unique. It is reasonable to set the $\varphi$ to a bulk value at $\Gamma_{bulk}$ as well, and to calculate $p_{bulk}$ from the molar fraction sum constraint.

function spacecharge!(f, u, node, data)
    φ = u[iφ]
    p = u[ip]
    return f[iφ] = -spacecharge(u[iφ], u[ip], data)
end;

function poisson_and_p_flux!(f, u, edge, data)
    f[iφ] = (1.0 + data.χ) * data.ε_0 * (u[iφ, 1] - u[iφ, 2])
    q1 = spacecharge(u[iφ, 1], u[ip, 1], data)
    q2 = spacecharge(u[iφ, 2], u[ip, 2], data)
    return f[ip] = (u[ip, 1] - u[ip, 2]) + (u[iφ, 1] - u[iφ, 2]) * (q1 + q2) / (2 * data.pscale)
end;

function create_equilibrium_pp_system(
        grid,
        data::EquilibriumData = EquilibriumData();
        Γ_bulk = 0
    )
    update_derived!(data)

    sys = VoronoiFVM.System(
        grid; data = data, flux = poisson_and_p_flux!,
        reaction = spacecharge!, species = [iφ, ip]
    )
    if Γ_bulk > 0
        logysum!(y, p) = y[1] = log(ysum(0.0, p[1], data))
        res = nlsolve(logysum!, [0.0]; autodiff = :forward, method = :newton, xtol = 1.0e-10, ftol = 1.0e-20)
        boundary_dirichlet!(sys, iφ, Γ_bulk, 0.0)
        boundary_dirichlet!(sys, ip, Γ_bulk, res.zero[1])
    end
    return apply_voltage!(sys, 0)
end;

function ysum(sys, sol)
    data = sys.physics.data
    n = size(sol, 2)
    sumy = zeros(n)
    for i in 1:n
        sumy[i] = ysum(sol[iφ, i], sol[ip, i], data)
    end
    return sumy
